Mathematics
1 answer:
Oksanka [162]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

O d. (7,5)

Step-by-step explanation:

x – 3y = -8 (1)

3x + 2y = 31 (2)

From (1)

x = -8 + 3y

Substitute x = -8 + 3y into (2)

3x + 2y = 31 (2)

3(-8 + 3y) + 2y = 31

-24 + 9y + 2y = 31

-24 + 11y = 31

11y = 31 + 24

11y = 55

y = 55/11

y = 5

Substitute y = 5 into (1)

x – 3y = -8 (1)

x - 3(5) = -8

x - 15 = -8

x = -8 + 15

x = 7

(x, y) = (7, 5)
